I have a set up as follows:
All subdomains pointing to the server
sub1.example.com should load /var/www/sub1
sub2.example.com should load /var/www/sub2
Any random subdomain should load /var/www/shared
The problem is the shared.conf file is being ignored and instead using sub1 (or whichever one I move to the start of the .conf file list).
Here are my conf files in their order after running ls -lv
sub1.conf
sub2.conf
shared.conf
sub1.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
ServerName sub1.example.com
ServerAlias sub1.example.com
<Directory /var/www/sub1/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
RewriteEngine On
</Directory>
DocumentRoot /var/www/sub1
</VirtualHost>
sub2.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
ServerName sub2.example.com
ServerAlias sub2.example.com
<Directory /var/www/sub2/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
RewriteEngine On
</Directory>
DocumentRoot /var/www/sub2
</VirtualHost>
shared.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
ServerAlias *.example.com
<Directory /var/www/shared/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
RewriteEngine On
</Directory>
DocumentRoot /var/www/shared
</VirtualHost>
I have also tried adding a random subdomain to the shared.conf file for Server Name, i.e.
ServerName shared-random.example.com
And also
ServerName *.example.com
I have also made sure to restart apache.
So when I put in any subdomain, e.g. blabla.example.com it always goes to sub1.conf.
I understand that the behaviour is to default to the first one, but only if there isnt a match. Why isnt shared.conf being considered a match?
change filename from shared.conf to 000-shared.conf
use below config for 000-shared.conf
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/shared
<Directory /var/www/shared>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted

I have an EC2 instance setup running Ubuntu 14.04 and Apache. I have a single elastic IP serving multiple domains and subdomains all of which point to individual folders on the server. The problem I am having is unless the subdomain is explicitly set in my .conf it will redirect to the main domain. I can't seem to find a definitive answer here or in google.
I have a single .conf file residing in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ serving all of the domains and subdomains like so:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me#mydomain.com
ServerName mydomain.com
ServerAlias www.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mydomain.com
<Directory /var/www/html/mydomain.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me#mydomain.com
ServerName sub1.mydomian.com
ServerAlias www.sub1.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/sub1.com
<Directory /var/www/html/sub1.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me#mydomain.com
ServerName sub2.mydomian.com
ServerAlias www.sub2.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/sub2.com
<Directory /var/www/html/sub2.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin me#mydomain.com
ServerName mydomain2.com
ServerAlias www.mydomain2.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mydomain2.com
<Directory /var/www/html/mydomain2.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
So if I go to sub1.mydomain.com or sub2.mydomain.com it gets properly routed. But if I type sub3.mydomain.com which does not exist in my .conf file it gets redirected to mydomain.com. I do not want this behavior. How do I resolve this?
You need to enable name based virtualhosts. Add below line before your first virtual host and restart apache.
NameVirtualHost :80
If I go for http://example.com then its pointing to /var/www/html
Now I am in need that if I go for http://example.com/dashboard then it will point to /var/www/example/public. Or If this not possible then /var/www/html/example/public would also be okay.
And again I need that if I go for http://wildcardsubdomain.example.com/ then also it will point to /var/www/example/public. Or If this not possible then /var/www/html/example/public would also be okay.
How can I make so?
I have tried with this but /dashboard not working:
ServerName example.com
# Listen for virtual host requests on all IP addresses
UseCanonicalName Off
#dynamic subdomain provisioning
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
#WORKING
ServerName user.example.com
ServerAlias *.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/example/public
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
#NOT WORKING
ServerName www.example.com/dashboard
ServerAlias *.example.com/dashboard
DocumentRoot /var/www/example/public
</VirtualHost>
<Directory /var/www/html/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
For dashboard I could solve that using the Alias Directive
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
Alias /dashboard /var/www/example/public
<Directory /var/www/example/public>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I have the following vhosts setup:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin#localhost.com
DocumentRoot "C:\Apache24\htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost cake-photos.com:80>
ServerAdmin admin#localhost.com
DocumentRoot "C:\Apache24\htdocs\cake-photos"
ServerName cake-photos.com
ServerAlias *.cake-photos.com
<Directory "C:\Apache24\htdocs\cake-photos">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
Require ip 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost fangwear.co.uk:80>
ServerAdmin admin#localhost.com
DocumentRoot "C:\Apache24\htdocs\Fangwear 2014"
ServerName fangwear.co.uk
ServerAlias www.fangwear.co.uk
<Directory "C:\Apache24\htdocs\Fangwear 2014">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
# Require all granted
Require ip 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost manager.com:80>
ServerAdmin admin#localhost.com
DocumentRoot "C:\Apache24\htdocs\Manager 2014"
ServerName manager.com
ServerAlias www.manager.com
<Directory "C:\Apache24\htdocs\Manager 2014">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
# Require all granted
Require ip 127.0.0.1
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
None of it seems to be working and if I try to go to any of these I end up being redirected to the cake-photos.com vhost.
I need to be able to get to other things too such as localhost/phpmyadmin but that won't work with this configuration.
Where am I going wrong?
Did you set up your hosts file? On Unix Systems /etc/hosts? And did you restart your server?
I have this configuration but both url app.test.com & stage.test.com
redirect to same code/deployment
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName app.test.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/Test-Prod/web
<Directory "/var/www/html/Test-Prod/web">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog logs/test-prod__error_log
CustomLog logs/test-prod_access_log common
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName stage.test.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/Test/web
<Directory "/var/www/html/Test/web">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

</Directory>
ErrorLog logs/test-website_error_log
CustomLog logs/test-website_access_log common
</VirtualHost>
The usual error for this is leaving out the NameVirtualHost directive if you're still using httpd 2.2
Add the following in your config file and it'll probably work
NameVirtualHost *.80
You might want to read the documentation for Named-based Virtual Host Support with httpd 2.2.
NameVirtualHost *.80
<VirtualHost localhost:80>
ServerName color
ServerAlias localhost
ServerPath "C:/wamp/www/subwww/color"
DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www"
<Directory "C:/wamp/www/subwww/color">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
in above code, subdomain name is color
and the url is http://color.localhost/
if the operating system is windows then add "127.0.0.1 color.localhost" in "C:/windows/system32/dirvers/etc/hosts" with notepad run as administration
I have defined two VirtualHosts on Apache, and the problem is, one of them overrides the other one. i.e. when I try to reach the second address, the first one shows up.
Here is my first config:
ServerName www.example1.com
DocumentRoot /server/sites/example1
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin#example1.com
DocumentRoot /server/sites/example1
ServerAlias example1.com
<Directory /server/sites/example1/>
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
And the second:
ServerName www.example2.tv
DocumentRoot /server/sites/tv/public/
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin#example2.tv
DocumentRoot /server/sites/tv/public
<Directory /srver/sites/tv/public>
# This relaxes Apache security settings.
AllowOverride all
# MultiViews must be turned off.
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
When I load www.example2.tv, it still shows www.example1.com content.
example1 is written in PHP and example2 is Ruby on Rails.
You need to have the ServerName directive inside the VirtualHost configuration i.e.:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example2.tv
ServerAdmin admin#example2.tv
DocumentRoot /server/sites/tv/public
<Directory /server/sites/tv/public>
# This relaxes Apache security settings.
AllowOverride all
# MultiViews must be turned off.
Options -MultiViews
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
You can examine your configured VirtualHosts using apachectl -S - this will print a list of all the configured VirtualHosts and their corresponding config files
